A new update is available for Positech’s space strategy title Gratuitous Space Battles, bringing the game up to v1.42.

Truth be told the patch isn’t too large, packing only a pair of notes in a fix and an improvement for GSB. The game now ‘silently ignores’ invalid designs instead of crashing when opening the design loader as well as repairing a rare issue where a ship’s power is displayed as invalid but the design can be saved and loaded anyway.

The patch is currently available for automatic download for owners of the game on Steam.

From the change log:

Version 1.42

• Fixed problem where in rare cases a ship’s power may be displayed as invalid, but the design can still be saved and loaded.
• Game will now silently ignore invalid designs like it used to do, rather than crashing when opening the design loader.
